ESG Project Manager

Project Manager, Sustainability & Social Impact (EMEA)

Want to lead high-impact philanthropy, inclusion and sustainability projects for one of the most recognisable beverage brands on the planet?

This one's a genuinely exciting brief.

I'm working confidentially with a globally iconic, market-leading FMCG drinks business to find a Strategic Project Manager to sit at the heart of their ESG agenda across EMEA.

You’ll own the end-to-end delivery of projects spanning corporate philanthropy, inclusion, and sustainability, working directly with senior stakeholders and reporting into the VP of Legal.

• Manage multiple concurrent projects from initiation to closure, owning plans, timelines, risk and governance
• Drive corporate giving and charitable partnership programmes, working closely with Legal and Compliance on due diligence
• Lead inclusion-focused initiatives that remove barriers and build equitable opportunity across the region
• Coordinate sustainability work streams with Brand, Comms and functional teams, plus NGO and environmental partners
• Build and activate engagement communities that bring people into the mission, not just the metrics

• 4 to 6 years in project or programme management, ideally with ESG, sustainability, inclusion or social impact exposure
• Someone who can run multiple priorities independently, without needing to be chased
• Strong governance instincts. Comfortable in a risk register as much as a stakeholder meeting
• A genuine passion for social impact. This isn't a box-ticking role, it's a business that means it

This is a rare chance to own real ESG delivery inside a brand with serious global reach and cultural cachet, not just influence policy from the sidelines. For the right person, it's a career-defining move into a business that’s investing properly in this space.

This search is strictly confidential. I can share full details, including the client name, once we’ve had an initial conversation.

I want to hear from the best project and programme leaders in this space, whether you’re actively looking or just curious.
